thanks for the review. I was considering whether to watch this. Reading your review, it seems like not so fantastic,…
It’s good but it’s not great. I have watched a lot police procedurals so I am a tough rater of the genre as well. Put it this way - it’s not The Wire or even Bones but is a decent watch.

On The Blue Whisper: Part 1 Mar 18, 2022
First two episodes are only ok. It starts with an epilogue that foreshadows what is to come and then rushes through the backstory and character intros for the sake of introducing both leads in the first episode. The initial look is very cringe throwback to 1980s-90s although Dilraba does look very cute with short hair. The styling improves markedly but the use of CGI is way too heavy handed. I really like the way Yunhe is written and portrayed and Dilraba and Ren Jialun's chemistry is promising. That said, I don't love the storytelling approach so far - it is somewhat incoherent and there is some serious overacting going on in some of the side roles. The only thing that stands out so far is that this is a very different kind of character for Dilraba and it is nice to see her maturing as an actor.

I actually don't remember what she looks like lol. This wrapped up filming just before she came out with the expose.…
I like both actors but I have mixed feelings about the director. Story sounds interesting though - will at least watch a few.

Wow, Tan jia Ci is beautiful in this drama. I first noticed his good look in Secret of Three Kingdom but in this…
He was also exceptional in Winter Begonia. In fact I thought his portrayal of the “dan” role was a highlight of the drama and as good if not better than Yin Zheng’s.

Omg 😱 10 loops!!! I literally got off the bus at 2 or 3 but was thinking of giving it another shot but idk about 10x…
This one so far is very watchable.

That’s a positive development for sure but my reservations have everything to do with storytelling and little to do with whether at the margin its due to censorship. Take Reset for example - time loops get boring as hell after the second loop if you are looping more than that you don’t know how to tell a story.

Noted re: Reset.
Fingers crossed re: Blue Whisper I am curious to see how a Dilraba/Ren Jialun pairing works...

Yes its overall a much better rounded production but so far the cases haven't really grabbed me.

Reset didn't hold my interest I dropped after 2 or 3 episodes but I had a lot going on at the time - I may give it another try during quarantine.

Lol maybe all influencers sport a similar look. I really like the dynamics between Shen Yi and Du Cheng but up to ep 7 I think the cases in Lie Detective which were also based on true cases are a lot better.

The internet influencer that exposed Kris Wu. That suspect seems like a parody of her.

That ending just stopped short of the tragedy in Luoyang. I thought it would go that way( the ending and my rating)…
